In this paper, we study the combinatorics of congruence subgroups of the modular group by generalizing results obtained in the non-modular case. For this, we define a notion of irreducible solutions from which we can build all the…

An algorithm for irreducible decomposition of representations of finite groups over fields of characteristic zero is described. The algorithm uses the fact that the decomposition induces a partition of the invariant inner product into a…

We give explicit formulas to compute most of the decomposition numbers of reductions modulo 2 of irreducible spin representations of symmetric groups indexed by partitions with at most 2 parts. In many of the still open cases small upper…

We use vertex operators to compute irreducible characters of the Iwahori-Hecke algebra of type $A$. Two general formulas are given for the irreducible characters in terms of those of the symmetric groups or the Iwahori-Hecke algebras in…

In a recent paper, the authors introduced a new basis of the ring of symmetric functions which evaluate to the irreducible characters of the symmetric group at roots of unity. The structure coefficients for this new basis are the stable…

We study irreducible representations of a class of quantum spheres, quotients of quantum symplectic spheres.

Conditional on the extended Riemann hypothesis, we show that with high probability, the characteristic polynomial of a random symmetric $\{\pm 1\}$-matrix is irreducible. This addresses a question raised by Eberhard in recent work. The main…

We introduce and study some families of groups whose irreducible characters take values on quadratic extensions of the rationals. We focus mostly on a generalization of inverse semi-rational groups, which we call uniformly semi-rational…

Let S be a principally embedded sl_2 subalgebra in sl_n for n > 2. A special case of results of the third author and Gregg Zuckerman implies that there exists a positive integer b(n) such that for any finite-dimensional irreducible sl_n…

By generalizing Frobenius' polynomial method to good partition algebra, we will develop new character theories for a finite group $G$. A uniform defining equations are derived for these kinds of character theories. The new character…

For any n>3, we give a family of finite dimensional irreducible representations of the braid group B_n. Moreover, we give a subfamily parametrized by 0<m<n of dimension the combinatoric number (n,m). The representation obtained in the case…

The irreducible spin character values of the wreath products of the hyperoctahedral groups with an arbitrary finite group are determined.

We give a combinatorial formula for the character of a finite-dimensional irreducible representation of the periplectic Lie superalgebra $\mathfrak{p}(n)$. The character of irreducible module $L(\mu)$ is given by a cancellation-free…

Classical Schur P-functions are the particular case of Hall-Littlewood polynomials when the parameter is equal to -1. We introduce factorial (interpolation) analogues of Schur P-functions. A dimension of a skew shifted Young diagram is the…

Given a generalized $e$-block $B$ of a symmetric group and an $e$-regular conjugacy class $C$, we study the number of irreducible characters in $B$ which do not vanish on $C$ and find lower bounds for it.

The decomposition of the polynomials on the quaternionic unit sphere in $\Hd$ into irreducible modules under the action of the quaternionic unitary (symplectic) group and quaternionic scalar multiplication has been studied by several…

In this paper, we introduce the generalised Knutson Index and compute it for the special linear groups and projective special linear groups of degree two by computing the lowest common multiple of the degrees of their irreducible…

Spin-space groups (SSGs), including the traditional space groups (SGs) and magnetic space groups (MSGs) as subsets, describe the complete symmetries of magnetic materials with weak spin-orbit coupling (SOC). In the present work, we…
